A Stanford-led study of 25 video interventions points to solutions for reducing polarization, anti-democratic attitudes and support for political violence. Two treatments submitted by University of Utah scholars showed most promise addressing all three of these divisive outcomes.
Researchers at Binghamton University, State University of New York have developed artificial plants that purify indoor air and generate electricity.
Highlights research work being down across several disciplines at the veterinary school
Researchers have developed a compact, wearable ultrasound device that monitors muscle activity. Attachable to the skin with an adhesive and powered by a small battery, the device wirelessly captures high-resolution images of muscle movements, enabling continuous, long-term monitoring. When worn on the rib cage, it effectively monitored diaphragm function for respiratory health assessments. When worn on the forearm, it accurately captured hand gestures, allowing users to control a robotic arm and even navigate virtual games. This new technology has potential applications in healthcare for conditions affecting muscle function, as well as in human-machine interfaces for more natural robotic control.
The search for dark matter includes expertise in radio frequency signal detection, quantum sensing, and high-energy physics at PNNL.

Most likely, the outcome of this upcoming U.S. presidential election will rely on seven key states, according to Dr. Steve Nawara, chair and professor of political science at Lewis University. Those states include Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, and Wisconsin.
A new analysis led by researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis has revealed detailed 3D maps of the internal structures of multiple tumor types. These cancer atlases reveal how different tumor cells — and the cells of a tumor’s surrounding environment — are organized, in 3D, and how that organization changes when a tumor spreads to other organs. The detailed findings offer scientists valuable blueprints of tumors that could lead to new approaches to therapy and spark a new era in the field of cancer biology, according to the researchers.
Most small kidney stones can pass on their own. However, kidney stones that are too large to pass on their own or cause bleeding, kidney damage or ongoing urinary tract infections may require surgical treatment. Dr. Aaron Potretzke, a Mayo Clinic urologist in Rochester, Minnesota, explains some of the different surgical options for removing kidney stones.
B-Roll and photos are available from one of Cedars-Sinai's happiest celebrations of the year: Halloween in the Cedars-Sinai Guerin Children's Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, where the smallest babies and their families are treated to handmade costumes, courtesy of a cadre of volunteers.
Building on an enduring commitment to graduate and medical education, Cedars-Sinai has established Cedars-Sinai Health Sciences University to prepare generations of academic scientists, physician leaders and allied health professionals for the future of healthcare and biomedical science.
New study details how major real-world events grow and strengthen global hate networks online, inciting new hate content around specific hot-button issues.
By measuring the brain’s electrical signals, researchers in the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology's Cognition and Brain Lab explore how the brain links sensory information to meaning and memory.
Kidney Week 2024: Live Event
Thin, stretchy skin — like that of a pig or human — lessens the underlying damage that occurs when it’s punctured. Pig skin even outperforms synthetic materials designed to mimic skin, a study led by the University of Illinois finds. Its qualities, in particular its ability to dissipate the energy of a puncturing object, greatly reduce the damage to deeper tissues.
Digital Science is today calling for greater awareness of the impact that a myriad of fast-developing technologies are having on academics and their institutions.
Dr. Susan Kelly-Weeder, Dean of the School of Nursing at George Washington University and an expert in high-risk health behaviors among college students. Dr. Kelly-Weeder shares her groundbreaking research on the dangerous intersection of binge drinking and disordered eating on college campuses.
Cheers of excitement, high-fives all around, and wide, beaming smiles – they’re all the signs of a team success. But this is not a sporting field – this is the camaraderie found among the next generation of teachers learning the very latest, world-class robotics programs so they can excite and inspire students about STEM.
Question: You probably know some of the stereotypes about people who live in trailer parks. Do you think those stereotypes live up to the reality?
